"The Super Heavy booster will utilize flight proven hardware for the first time, reusing a Raptor engine from the booster launched and returned on Starship’s fifth flight test."
No confirmation that this is R314 as has been speculated, but a reflown engine was expected!

Most of this has been discussed in detail on the RW discord including ChameleonCir comparing the markings on the inside of the bell's and they do appear to match.

There is also always the chance that we've read either serial incorrectly but both do appear to definitely be a R3_7, however while both appear to be an 8, there is the chance that it could be a 0.

Now the main thing that's made me unsure about this is that SpaceX didn't mention that they were reflying an engine. This is unusual as you would expect there to be a big deal about "being on the way to rapid reusability".

Yesterday, certain... footage, was released of B13, Here an engine which appears to be R387 is visible, However we have seen R387 before on B12 during its launch. While I'm personally not convinced, it does appear that they have possibly reflown an engine! (🧡)

With the help of the rw discord, last night while I was asleep 8 of B13's engines were identified from various launch photos!

S31's cards after yesterday's flight! Still no engines from B13 but hope to get some if they recover it later!

Ahead of IFT-6 hopefully in just under 3 and half hours, here's the raptors that are currently installed on S31. The landing going well, we should manage to spot at least the RB's on B13 as well later!

Welcome to (bluesky) home the @ringwatchers.com's Spacex Raptor Engine Tracking, here there will be a combination of raptor engines trackers and updates as we see engines moving about around the place.
